Our Partner Communities:
For Contacts and Clock, use YOU apps. I don't think anything can replace the Gallery, I'll continue using the current version for as long as there's a new community-maintained fork. It's quite stable really, doesn't really need changing this very moment.
Contact YOU app has SMS inbuilt. The SMS support is in very early stage so buggy but the dev is going on at an amazing pace. Just give it a few more months.
For dialer, I'd keep using the simple app for now. There's Koler with material you theme but it hasn't seen dev in 5 months and doesn't have all the feature like regex-based call blocking.
Downside is that it does not support MMS and they don't plan to add it. SMS will always cut off at 160 characters, making you send multiple SMS to send it all, instead of sending a big MMS. Also means you can't send pictures.
